This training program is intended to provide entry level construction workers information about their rights, employer responsibilities, and how to file a complaint as well as how to identify, abate, avoid and prevent job related hazards on a construction site.  The training covers a variety of construction safety and health hazards which a worker may encounter at a construction site. Training should emphasize hazard identification, avoidance, control and prevention, not OSHA standards.

Voluntary Program.  This training program is voluntary.  It does not meet training requirements in any OSHA standard.  Even though some jurisdictions, employers, and unions require Construction Industry outreach training to work on job sites and to fulfill their safety training goals, OSHA still considers the program voluntary.  Workers must receive additional training on hazards specific to their job.
